Shampoo Bubs

First off, we're signing up for fantasy football. It involves an email draft at the beginning of the year, which is a time commitment, and about an hour a week to run your team. If anyone feels up to it, go to yahoo fantasy football with the following info:

Go ahead and sign up if you are interested. As an aside, Christen, have Mike check his email and sign up if he wants to play.

In a softball game yesterday, I was umping, bases were loaded, I'm sure a few players were loaded too. It was a women's league, and the batter hit the ball down the 3rd base line. The runner on 3rd tried to avoid it by juming over it, thus leaving her base. The ball bounced up and hit her while she was off the base, but in fair territory, before it had passed any defensive player. You make the call, by the reaction of the 3rd base coach, I don't know the rules. Her argument was that we can't expect players to maintain contact with the base when they know they are going to get hit. I told her to just go into foul territory. Seemed pretty obvious to me.

We did the old crib taking down ceremony yesterday. Lincoln is now in a big boy bed. We had him wave bye bye to his crib as I took it and hid it outside. After he was asleep, I took it downstairs into storage. We are going to try to wait 12 weeks, and set it up for Ella. Hopefully Lincoln will be none the wiser.

Last Monday, I took a shower, which isn't an every day occurance in the summer. Either the kids are awake and terrorizing, or I'm afraid of waking the kids up, or I don't feel like taking a shower. After I took the shower, for the rest of the day, I noticed that my head seemed extra bumpy whenever I scratched it. I went to sleep, and in the middle of the night it dawned on me. I forgot to wash the shampoo out of my hair. This will happen to me like twice a year. When I told Ange, she said that she thought I had washed my hair with body wash. Apparently, my hair smelled quite fragrent. I guess it's my lot in life to forget to rinse my hair from time to time. I wonder if shampoo bottles mention that in the instructions. Needless to say, I took a shower as soon as I could to get rid of my bumpy head. Taking showers on consecutive days was quite the blow as you can imagine.

We are going to Bear Lake this Wednesday. We have room for 4 more people. If anyone is interested in a quick Bear Lake excursion, email me, and I will share details.

Platypi is going to be starting up the last week of August. We are still short a player, if anyone knows of someone who dominates, let me know. By dominate, I mean doesn't strike out, and can catch.
